#ElonMusk : Master of the Future, Blind to the Present?
🌍 While famine, disease, and suffering ravage parts of Africa, Elon Musk—tech billionaire and self-styled futurist—has turned his gaze skyward, cutting humanitarian lifelines while chasing a vision of a multiplanetary future.
🦠 In South Sudan, clinics have shut down mid-cholera outbreak. Mothers carry dying children for miles. In Somalia, kids arrive too malnourished to speak. Across Nigeria, medical aid has vanished. Why? Deep slashes to global health aid—many cheered on by Musk in his leadership role at DOGE.
💬 Musk called USAID a “criminal org” and bragged about feeding it “into the wood chipper.” When asked about human cost? “Show me the orphans,” he shrugged.
🧬 At the same time, Musk promotes a future where only certain people thrive. He supports longtermist ideologies—focused on preserving humanity far into the future (preferably on Mars). His push for more children? Backed by donations to population research and alignment with controversial pronatalist figures. But critics note: it’s a narrow vision—one leaning toward elitism, even eugenics.
👽 Musk sees Starship, his Mars rocket, as the “key branching point for human destiny.” But who qualifies for that journey?
🔗 Meanwhile, vital links in the global aid chain are breaking: blood tests for HIV-positive babies go undelivered, food programs end, lives are lost. Aid workers describe a growing sense of hopelessness.
❤️🔥 Musk speaks of empathy as a “bug” in society. But empathy is the chain that holds humanity together—here on Earth.
📉 As the richest man alive reaches for the stars, the question echoes: who gets left behind?
